Imano is a cozy, well run hostel that is impeccably clean. The beds are comfortable. The women only floor is secured with a lovely common area and a fridge. Imano was the first hostel i ever visited 3 years ago and i will gladly visit again. With the money you save staying here you can head to the super sento (3 mins walk) and relax after the day walking Tokyo. Closest station exit is Shinjuku sanchome E1 which also has an elevator (close to golden gai).

This is definitely hostel-style lodging, but it is perfectly adequate for the price you're paying. The beds were quite comfortable! I happened to be with respectful roommates so it was very quiet. It was clean and in a very convenient location. We arrived early and they were willing to store our luggage until check-in.

Great location, and clean common areas. It may be spartan--it's a hostel after all--but It's one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in, and the price is outstanding. And I LOVED that every bed has its own set of outlets to recharge those phones/tablets/portable WiFi's.

The accommodation was perfect for the price. Comfortable bunk beds, great shower, clean, hot and strong pressure. Other guests were quite and considerate. We had a private 4 bed dorm for our family. Convience store very close by, yummy breakfast to buy, good atmosphere in the reception area/cafe. Small laundry facility with directions to a bigger one if you need to wash more. We had a great stay, walking distance to lots of restaurants and bars.

The ubication was really good and the installations were okay. The beds are somewhat small and the shared rooms had almost no space to accomodate luggage. The air conditioner was really loud at some point while it was on. If you are in a pinch it is a good lifesaver, but I wouldn't recommend it for a good night's rest.

There are multiple Imano Hostels in Tokyo. I accidentally went to the Imano Hostel in Ginza instead of the one I had booked. However, they were very helpful with rebooking and cancellation, and I really appreciated their assistance. Thank you very much.

Convenient and clean location (~5 min walk to Shinjuku Sanchome Station, 1 train stop from main Shinjuku Station), nearby convenience stores (Lawson, 7-Eleven and Family Mart), staff very friendly and helpful. Really appreciated allowing me to have my packages delivered to the hostel. Moderate sized cafe/working area in the lobby. A slight commercial feel given the volume of beds on each level, fair given the proximity to the CBD.
